I’m a big believer in that idea that if an item is absurdly tiny, it is instantly adorable as well. These miniature knitted guys are no exception – even the zombie! Download the instructions in .pdf form for only $5.00. Then, if you’re so inclined, knit me one! Perhaps I should add ‘learn knitting’ to my list of to dos?

Available at Mochimochi Land for $5.00.

AJ Quilts has an awesome panda quilt-a-long currently going! She’s only on week 2, so you have plenty of time to catch up! I think after finals week is over (the last one of my undergraduate career! YAY!), I’ll join in.

This site has quite a few links to DIY instructions for this and other mini creatures. They’d make a great rainy spring afternoon craft project!

Over at Blackpio.com they’ve posted a few adorable papercrafts called FlipZOO. They were made to bring awareness about our impact on the environment, so not only are they cute – they’re also spreading a good message!

Download the set in .pdf format here for free!

They also offer these cute little pins/badges on Etsy. Set of 10 for $25.00.

Katherine sent in a link to her panda cookie tutorial just in time for Valentine’s Day!  I’ll definitely be trying her method of transfering the panda image to the cookies. I didn’t even know Foodwriters existed until her email.

Check out the tutorial on her Flickr account.

Thanks again for sending this in, Katerine!

Make Magazine has this cute little needle felted panda kit (among others) available for only $16.00. Here’s what you get in the kit:

• One Felting Needle
• Photo Instruction Booklet
• Wood Skewer
• Beads & Enough Corriedale & Merino Roving To Make One Animal
• You will need a foam pad, not included.

This would make a perfect gift or a nice craft project for those cold winter nights. I just love crafty panda ideas!

Mollychicken has this adorable and easy tutorial on how to make the cutest little Anna Panda! I’m gonna make a ton of these for friends’ kids because they’re super simple and quick to make!

Want to make your own panda charms from clay? Even if you haven’t thought about it, this tutorial by Oborochann makes it look so easy you’ll probably want to give it a try!

Since the tutorial is one VERY long photo, I’ve put it behind the cut. See you on the other side!

These adorable Olympic panda paper crafts are available free from the original source, cardmodel.cn, or you can download them below from Perfect Pandas. Unfortunately, the instructions are in Chinese, so you’ll have to follow along with the pictures. Luckily, there are a ton of photos to follow along with so you should be fine! They’re extremely intricate, so it will probably takes hours upon hours to complete, but look how cute they are!
